 If you already installed the supported version `@zowe-v1-lts`, switch versions to try this feature. Daemon mode will be included in the next major Zowe release, V2.0.0-LTS. You can also [install the @next release of Zowe CLI](cli-install-cli-next.md#install-zowe-cli-from-a-download).

 ## Feature overview
+
 Daemon Mode significantly improves the performance of Zowe CLI commands by running Zowe CLI as a persistent background process (daemon).
 
-## Install the zowex native executable
-You can download and install the zowex native executable from Zowe Downloads (preferred) or from the Zowe Github repository. To install the zowex native executable from Zowe Downloads, see [Install Zowe CLI from a download](cli-install-cli-next.md#install-zowe-cli-from-a-download).

-To download and install the zowex native executable from the Zowe Github repository:
 1. Navigate to the Zowe CLI GitHub [repository](https://github.com/zowe/zowe-cli)
 2. Under the **Release** section, click **Native Client Release**.
    The Download page is displayed.
 3. Click the link to download the executable (.tgz file) for your operating system.
-4. Unzip the zowex .tgz file and place the zowex (or zowex.exe) file into a directory which occurs on your PATH earlier than the directory containing the NodeJS zowe command.

+**Note:** The Mac executable may need an exception for an unidentified developer: [Open a Mac app from an unidentified developer](https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/open-a-mac-app-from-an-unidentified-developer-mh40616/mac)
 
-## Starting Zowe in daemon mode
-Verify that you have installed [the @next release of Zowe CLI](cli-install-cli-next.md) and the [zowex native executable](#install-the-zowex-native-executable).
+## Running zowe commands with the zowe executable
 
+Verify that you have installed [the @next release of Zowe CLI](cli-install-cli-next.md) and the [zowe native executable](#install-the-zowex-native-executable).
 
-To start Zowe CLI in daemon mode:
+Run any zowe command as you normally would. The first time you run any zowe command, the command will automatically start a daemon in the background. It will then run your desired command. Since that first command must start the daemon, that first zowe command will actually run slower than a traditional zowe command. However, every zowe command afterward will run significantly faster. The daemon will continue to run in the background until you close your terminal window.
 
-1. Issue the command:
-   Windows command prompt (cmd.exe):
-   ```
-   start zowe --daemon
-   ```   
-   Linux or Windows PowerShell:
-   ```
-   zowe --daemon &
-   ```
-   The CLI responds with prompts for a username and password.
+Example:
 
-2. Enter the username and password.
+```text
+zowe --version
+Starting a background process to increase performance ...
+7.0.0-next.202110211759
 
-3. Use `zowex` as your primary command instead of `zowe`.
-   Example:
-   ```
-   zowex zosmf check status
-   ```
+zowe --version
+7.0.0-next.202110211759
+```
